Where is the origin of slippers in China?

At present, there are five main producing areas of slippers in China, which are located in Neikeng Town of Jinjiang, Jieyang City of Shantou, Cangshan District of Fuzhou, Wuhou District of Chengdu and Wenling City of Taizhou, each with its own characteristics. Slippers belong to the small-profit part of the shoemaking industry, with a gross profit margin of about 15% and a large output, but there is almost no brand awareness.

The development of China's slipper industry is still in the initial stage of growth, with great potential and rapid development. From 29 to 212, the average annual growth rate of the slipper industry market scale exceeded 1%. Because the slipper industry, unlike the traditional big industries such as garment industry and toy industry in China, has the background of government support, a history of state operation, a large industry scale and a large number of employees, it is easy to attract social attention. Therefore, judging from the current market consumption situation, most of the products in many sub-industries are not mature enough, but the development potential of EVA slippers, PVC slippers and disposable slippers is still considerable.

In recent years, the world slipper industry has formed a certain industrial scale, and the related slipper products are becoming more and more perfect. However, the domestic slipper market is far from mature. Compared with developed European and American countries, there is still a considerable gap in terms of market scale, product grade, variety specifications and consumption level. With the rapid development of China's market economy, the improvement of slippers' technical level and product quality, and the continuous expansion of application fields, China's slippers industry will have huge market demand and development space. In the next few years, especially in 215, the market size of China's slipper industry will exceed 13 billion yuan, and the growth rate will reach about 7%.
